There were 3 or 4 threads here about that today, but they were all pulled. The information wasn't sourced.
is that what the Red Cross lady actuall said to JJ
Yep
I doubt that
IMHO .. I think they were just in over their heads and didn't have a clue of what to do or how to give an order
Many of the NO and LA Officials LACKED Leadership
Thanks for the voice of reason Mike
Nice touch, LOL
Ad hominem attacks don't influence me. I've been here a long time.
FOX is NOT the favorite network of most here. It's just the more tolerant given the choices. FOX has been bashed quite often, so don't dare say the critisism is motivated because they aren't saying what we want to hear.
BTW, I never give a dime to the Salvation Army. I have SERIOUS religious objections to doing so.
On the next thread, can you list the Southern Baptists as a charity to contribute to? They are having some success in helping folks. They are very experienced at getting into bad situations and making them better with their disaster relief units. It's at namb.net
even then...
as I said, I really wonder how some of these National Gaurdsmen are going to come out of it.
Strong as usual I hope, but this is a disaster that is going to linger for years here people.
As I said, Geraldo was probably going to get through the segment until he picked up that baby.
Shep needs to get out of there. Not only is he probably going to get sick, but his emotions are both raw and taking over.
I am going to give them a break on this, but FNC needs to get either some fresh blood in there, or just get their guys out altogether.
Which company and which hub? If it's because they had shut off the Gulf wells or because Katrina was bearing on down, I can't exactly fault them.
How's this for outrageous - up here in Wisconsin, the gas stations have to charge at least the HIGHER of 6% above invoice (what they paid for what's in their tanks) or 9.18% above the average wholesale price. And the DemonRAT governor, who sees nothing really wrong about that, and who has just diverted hundreds of millions of gas tax dollars (mind you, we're paying over 32 cents/gallon in state gas taxes) to his buddies in the teachers union, is blaming President Bush for the high gas prices.
You must be a racist because you singled out Gary, Detroit and LA. (Sarcasim Off)
" Prayers for your friend's family and brother. I pray that they get the relief they need, and that meanwhile they are given the physical strength and stamina, and faith & hope, sufficient to keep them going."
Thanks for the kind words. I'll pass on to her that perfect strangers are remembering her family in their prayers-she will be touched.
* bump * to your post ...
Absent the lawlessness and looting this kind of cordon & secure approach wouldn't have been needed and relief efforts would have been a lot faster.
Hope this isn't way off topic. I don't think it is. Lately I've been wondering what I would do if something happened here. Well Mich only has Great Lakes but if our elec went out for days...
Is there any internet that would work? Anywhere? Because I would go without TV but not FR...Any new tech?
If you don't know how to use one, or you are a small female, I would not recommend it.
I would advise you to try and partner up with someone who is capable. I know that sounds stupid (trying to find a partner), but you could get hurt.
I'm a female, I know how to use a weapon because I was taught beforehand.
"The first people the national guard should forcibly evacuate are the press"
I was praying today that Pres. Bush would request a one-to-one mtg. with that Nagin and one way or another take him entirely out of the loop. The busses stranded in water is all I need to see to know he should be evacuated and imprisoned and held for trial later.
Up YOURS NBC and Andrea Mitchell, you're water carrying for the hard left in this country has just become hate vomit.
